Yes, it’s the kind of post again. The kind of post where I
talk about all my feelings to the point where you are wondering- how are you
okay with everyone in the world viewing this information?? Well, if you had
THAT amazing of a sister, you would too. Plus, I made this picture gigantic so you could see how adorable she was. (& still is!)
Where to start, Courtney Ileane Schow (it’s still so weird
for me not to write Tramel) is probably one of the most beautiful girls inside
and out. This girl. We fought like ordinary sisters would (okay, maybe a little
worse than ordinary). Over clothes, boys, attention from parents, attention
from our older sister, you name it. We fought over it. All growing up, I was
called “Courtney Junior,” and it always made me so mad. Apparently to everyone
we looked exactly alike, I just couldn’t see it. It wasn’t until high school
that I realized what a blessing it was to be nicknamed after her. No one can
hate Courtney. She is that sweet spirited girl who goes with the freaking flow
of everything. Sometimes it drives me crazy, especially when we are trying to
decide what to do, but she is the one I always go to when I need comfort, or
lets be honest, someone to just calm me down (because sometimes, I just need
it). You know all those awkward phases you go through in life? When you look
back at your school pictures and just think, “WOOF! What in the heck was I
thinking?” (Because I know you all do!) well Courtney never had that “ugly”
phase.. she was always perfect. Watching home videos of Court kill me. She
would just stand, carefree, in the middle of the living room and swing her
diaper between her legs. Loving every.single.minute. of being alive. She is
still like that today. I’m so grateful I have someone to play around with, and
someone that was willing to leave everything behind just to become another
grain of rice in the big land of China. I love that we can just sit and talk
for hours upon end. She has introduced me over and over again with new music,
tv shows, her impeccable style, and a way to look at life. She deserves the
absolute best birthday ever. Make sure you all have an internal brain thought
right now- *happy birthday court!*
Court, I love you.
Oh & Happy Birthday from your baby sister.
all grown up!
